I thought it was flipped at first too...but when zoomed in, what looks like a door with the white frame windows - doesn't look like a door any more. It's just "drippage" from the rain gutter/eyebrow over the window.

I agree, it could also be a 1936/37 Pierce Arrow Travelodge they have the really curvy/round high wheel wells too. But I don't see the prominent horizontal stripes or panel segments on the photo as in the Pierce Arrow ad.

Regardless, looks like it could be a very cool trailer...would love to know more about it.

That picture is as it sits. You are looking at the curb side with tongue to the left.
It sits along side of road but I need to find owner before I get more pics.

Here are some pictures of 2 Pierce Arrow trailers WITH their matching Pierce Arrow tow vehicles. I took these at the Pebble Beach Concours de Elegance auto show in August 2010.

Here is the link to my thread last year with more pictures of the Pierce Arrows. There are pictures of the beautiful birch woodwork interiors.
